Art/Literary - Poetry & Literature / ballad - Western genre
English term or phrase: bim-bam
Has anyone come across the expression 'bim-bam'? How would you translate it?

Context : the wild west - a squaw asks a wounded cow-boy: 'You want bim-bam? Best damn bim-bam this whole town.'

Could it possibly have a sexual connotation?

Also any ideas for : 'See if I give a fart on a wet Wednesday.' ?

Many thanks.
